The World’s Tallest Building Looks Badass From A Helicopter

Lily Hay Newman

There’s a lot to know about Dubai’s towering Burj Khalifa. Every creak and every inch is constantly monitored and explored. But sometimes you just want to see something lit up in all its glory. And that’s the point where you get in a helicopter and go take some awesome night shots. You have access to a helicopter, right?

If not the Beautiful Cities twitter feed has you covered. All of the Burj Khalifa’s 2,722 feet are shining here and the buildings around it, though dwarfed in comparison of course, look psychedelic too. Really makes you forget the tower’s never ending financial woes for a minute. [Beautiful Cities]
